Tha bocaidh beag de dh'each agam

I have a little rocking horse
|
|
Bocaidh beag is e a fiodh
|
A rocking horse made from brown wood
|
|
Lair bheag dhonn le blaran breac
|
A brown little pony
|
|
'S na nadur mar an t-or
|
He is as good as gold
|

Hai, ho derrin o, 's mise buachaille nam bo

|
Bha mi'n de 's a Ludag shuas
|
I was up at Ludag yesterday
|
|
'S bidh mi'n diugh'sa Cheann a Tuath
|
Today I'll travel to North Uist
|
|
'S ma bhitheas aiseag that a chuain
|
If there's a sailing
|
|
Theid sinn null a Leodhas
|
We'll take a trip to Lewis
|
|
|
|
|
Tha'm bocaidh beag seo mar a ghaoth
|
This little rocking horse goes like the wind
|
|
Le sitir bheag aic's mise a' glaoich
|
with a little neigh as I cry out
|
|
Siubhlaidh sinn gach cearn 's an t-saoghal
|
We shall travel different parts of the world
|
|
A' cleasachd is a spors'
|
Having fun and games
|
|
|
|
|
Bidh sinn buachailleachd nam bo
|
We will tend to the cattle
|
|
Air na prairies 's iad cho mor
|
Out on the big prairies
|
|
A' cruinneachadh nan gamhna coir
|
Gathering the kind calves
|
|
'S a sradail an lasso
|
Throwing the lasso
|
|
|
|
|
Chan fhas am ponaidh beag seo sgith
|
This little pony will never tire
|
|
Cha toir fairis ach mi fhin
|
But I'm exhausted
|
|
Tha mise falbh a ghabhail mo thi
|
I'm going home for my tea
|
|
Is acras orm tha mor
|
As I'm ravenous
|
